WePower chosen as one of Fast Company’s Top 10 Most Innovative Companies in Energy for 2018

WePower, the blockchain-based green energy trading platform, has been chosen as one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies in Energy for 2018.

Fast Company’s annual ranking of the world’s Most Innovative Companies (MIC) for 2018 honours leading enterprises and rising newcomers that exemplify the best in business and innovation. Other winners in the energy field include: Green Mountain Power, BYD, Sonnen, Drift Marketplace, Entrade, GE Power, Ciel& Terre, Zen Ecosystems, and Dandelion.

WePower is strongly focused on partnerships with utility companies. The company has already announced strategic agreements with Elering AS, an independent electricity and gas system operator in Estonia, the Ministry of Energy of the Republic of Lithuania, 220 Energia, Eleon, an Estonia based wind power technology company, and Spanish/Italian energy companies such as Conquista solar, Civitas project and Novacorex. WePower’s growing success shows that green energy and sustainability are some of the most supported challenges by communities across the globe that blockchain can solve.

Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies recognize pioneering companies across 36 categories, from energy to artificial intelligence to wellness. More than three dozen Fast Company editors, reporters, and contributors surveyed thousands of companies—many of which were identified by a new MIC submission process—to create these lists. Most Innovative Companies is Fast Company’s signature franchise and one of its most highly anticipated editorial efforts of the year. It provides both a snapshot and a road map for the future of innovation across the most dynamic sectors of the economy.

WePower creates opportunities for green energy developers, such as solar or wind plant builders, to raise capital by selling future energy production upfront in a form of energy tokens. WePower is strongly focused on securing partnerships with utility and energy companies.

Aside from a smart contract based financing mechanism, WePower’s technology also creates an opportunity for transparent green energy accounting. WePower operates a distributed open ledger, which records when and in what volumes green energy financed on the platform was produced and supplied into the grid. With WePower technology a whole new level of transparency in green energy account becomes possible, that does not exist today, to make investing in green energy producers easier and a reality for anyone.

“We are thrilled and honored to have been chosen as one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies,” said Nikolaj Martyniuk, Co-Founder and CEO of WePower, “To see WePower listed next to big names in the tech industry like Apple and and Netflix, shows not only how important the drive to sustainability is, but also the impact blockchain technology like WePower’s can have on our future.”

“This year’s MIC list is an inspiring and insightful window into how many companies have embraced innovation and are working to make meaningful change,” said Fast Company deputy editor David Lidsky, who oversaw the issue with senior editor Amy Farley.
